    It's great to see the ASHI media blitz. Should pay dividends for the organization and its members. Erol Kartal ProInspect Inc. On the brink of being a C2 dude.

    Chad, Why don't you come to the next ASHI meeting out here? There's a motel 6 nearby with a 7-11 across the street. Erol Kartal ProInspect

    Joe H.= Is the increase in referrals measurable to be attributable to the Branding Efforts? Hi Joe, Since I'm still about a cat hair away from C2, I can tell you that many of my member friends are benefiting from the ASHI media blitz. Erol Kartal ProInspect Inc.

    Hi Jon, There are a couple of possibilities based on homes I've seen in areas like yours (Colorado). - The outside air is extremely dry this time of year, while you may have excessively moist conditions in the home. The end result is excessive condensation. Or you may have leaks in the window seals. - The basement pipes can be wrapped to correct the condensation problem there. If you have excessive moisture in the home it may be lack of insulation and poor ventilation. Make sure bathroom exhaust vents to the exterior. Erol Kartal ProInspect

    Chad, You do have that 'I'm honest' look. Better change that if you want to get work. Erol Kartal

    Hi David, For those of us who prepare reports at home, it's going to take at the very minimum 4.5 hours. You've got the inspection, travel time and report writing. A good comment/narrative library helps. Erol Kartal

    I thought side venting was restricted to direct vent/high efficiency furnaces? Erol Kartal []

    Inspected 2 year old home with a client and Betty Zoid. There was no heat source in the first floor 1/2 bath. Is this common with new homes? Thanks Erol Kartal

    Jim, Your realistic comments are inspiring to those of us who are not contractors by trade. Erol Kartal

    Thanks for the clarification. Still wish the OBRE standards (as shown on OBRE web site) were as detailed as ASHI's. Erol Kartal

    Hi Kurt, You mention that your reports conform to ASHI SOP. I was told by the folks at the Illinois Office of Banks and Real Estate that we must mention that we inspect and report in accordance with OBRE standards. This I don't like because OBRE standards only mention what we inspect. Anyone else know for sure? Erol Kartal

    If there are too many exposed nails isn't the roof considered defective? I realize the words 'too many' are subjective, but when do you stop recommending caulk and start looking at the potential severity of the problem? Erol Kartal

    Just wondering if it is a solid brick home that would not require weep holes? Erol Kartal
